    Review Anyone know about elitehubs.com ?

    I came across the site elitehubs.com and am checking it out. Right now, the site is excruciatingly slow which they claim is due to an ongoing sale. Their physical address is in Vile Parle East, Mumbai. Does anyone here know about them?

    The Photography Thread !

    Thanks, and sorry about the late reply. I don't know how I missed seeing your post earlier. I used a Panasonic FZ1000 Mark II. In case you're not familiar with the model, it's a bridge camera, not an SLR or micro 4/3. The settings were ISO 125, aperture f/4.0, shutter 1/640 sec., focal length...

    Review Anyone familiar with nationalpc.in?

    You mean Prosenjit is the man behind nationalpc.in (owner, manager or whatever)? I saw the thread a few days ago but didn't go through the whole thread.

    Review Anyone familiar with nationalpc.in?

    According to their website, nationalpc.in is the site of Liprotech (OPC) Pvt Ltd based in Kolkata with dispatch warehouses in other major cities. From what I've seen with a quick browse, they seem to have good prices for some items and also provide free shipping and a 15-day return period. If...

    About EVM SSDs

    I know, that's what makes me curious. I got the mail too but I started seeing the brand quite some time ago.

    About EVM SSDs

    I sometimes come across the brand EVM in the SSD market in recent times. I know that they are an Indian company based in Mumbai and that's about it. I have no plans to buy one of their products but it will be nice to know what they are like, especially in terms of reliability and durability.

    Review ADATA warranty service in India

    Thanks for answers. I searched before asking here but somehow couldn't find the desired info. I hope they provide good service. As a long time pro in a high-tech field, I often discover that many Indian firms, including branches of global companies, don't live up to the shining promises they...

    RAM compatibility issues with Ryzen systems?

    Thanks for the replies. I'm particularly interested in the result of using 1) A RAM stick that's not on the mobo manufacturer's list 2) Two sticks that are not sold as a matched pair

    RAM compatibility issues with Ryzen systems?

    I've assembled lots of computers but most of them were years ago. These days, I keep seeing warnings and discussions saying that Ryzens are finicky about memory, with two main points coming up again and again: 1. Only memory on the motherboard manufacturer's list of tested types should be used...

    Real world advantage of USB 3 Gen 2 over Gen 1

    Thanks for the replies. You've confirmed my feelings. It may be nice to have a car that can go over 250 km/h even if you have no roads that support going over 100. But that's all it is - "nice to have".

    Real world advantage of USB 3 Gen 2 over Gen 1

    Those of you who are using a motherboard with "only" USB 3.0 or 3.1/3.2 Gen 1 (5Gb/s), do you sometimes find yourself in situations where you wished you had Gen 2 (10Gb/s)? To put it another way, are there times when the higher speed of a Gen 2 port would have given you a practical benefit? To...

    Review ADATA warranty service in India

    Does ADATA have a warranty service centre in India for their RAMs? If so, what are they like? I don't have any problem with an ADATA product now, I'd just like to know in case I need to make use of their service in the future.

    Has anyone had this issue with DTDC?

    Mizoram. I'm not 100% sure if the ban is still in effect but I never hear anyone talk abut DTDC anymore. They committed all kinds of offences while they were operating in my state, They often refused to make home delivery and told customers to collect their packages from their warehouse...

    Widespread misspelling of the name of my city

    Maybe poor wording on their part. I definitely got the impression that at least some feel that Aizwal must be correct or at least a valid alternative because they've seen it written that way in books. Someone even called the thread a debate which implies that there are opposing opinions and...

    Has anyone had this issue with DTDC?

    DTDC lost their licence to operate in my state in 2020, not only because of poor performance but also due to their arrogant attitude.

    Widespread misspelling of the name of my city

    That's what makes it so maddening. I've never known a foreign company or individual to get it wrong. Aha, it irks you even if it doesn't affect you personally. Imagine what it's like for us. We don't think it's deliberately misspelled out of any malicious intent, and I understand when some of...

    The Photography Thread !

    It seems no one is interested in taking pictures of the moon. BTW full moon is not the best time to take dramatic shots of the moon. The surface is too evenly lit up for interesting shadows and contrasts to come out. The point of my post was that last night was a good time to capture the biggest...

    Widespread misspelling of the name of my city

    There have been many attempts along that line. It hasn't done any good. Did you notice how many responses in this thread have failed to accept that the spelling 'Aizwal' is wrong? You're not mistaken. Thanks for your input. You got the point. But see how many other replies in this thread itself...

    Widespread misspelling of the name of my city

    You mean the state Chief Minister? Except for the most recent ones, I've personally known our past CMs, Chief Secretaries, many ministers and department heads. What do you expect them to do? I wrote in my opening post that the state government often receives communications from the Central...
